Football star Jason Brown retired abruptly from the NFL(美国国家橄榄球大联盟) in 2012 in order to deal with something bigger than anything he'd faced on a football field：sweet potatoes.
Brown，then 29，moved with his wife，Tay，and their children from Missouri，where he'd played with the St.Louis Rams，back home to North Carolina，where he bought 1，000 acres in Louisburg.Overnight，he went from football star to family farmer.“For most people，it doesn't make sense—why would you leave an awesome NFL career？” he says.
But Brown wasn't going to become just any farmer.He would give away nearly everything he grew.“I didn't feel I was just supposed to use my millions to buy food and donate it.I had to be out there doing the work and leading the way，” he says.
This radical step came to him one day when he was struck by a feeling that he had a purpose beyond sports.“Farming chose me；it was my calling in life，” he says.
Only one problem：Jason didn't know the first thing about farming.So he did what all beginners do today—watched videos on the Internet.Then be partnered with another local farm that helped him plant fields of sweet potatoes.He named his land First Fruits Farm.
In early fall of 2014，the first harvest was ready.Fifty pickup trucks arrived at the farm and loaded up 120，000 pounds to distribute locally.In 2015，First Fruits Farm expanded its sweet potato donations to food banks across eastern North Carolina.
Jason uses his unusual story to show local youth what it takes to grow food from start to finish.“They get that food doesn't just magically appear in the grocery store or restaurants，” he says.

Can you imagine living without cars，computers or telephones？Some people in the rain forest and mountains of Venezuela and Brazil do just that.One tribe(部落)，the Yanomami，has lived the same way for thousands of years.They only have numbers for one，two and more than two，and they have never invented the wheel.But they have also been called some of “the last free people on earth”．
In the late 1920s，researchers found a tribe of people untouched by modern society.This was the first reported meeting with the Yanomami，who were living deep within the South American jungle.
Scientists agree that their location deep in the forest helped their culture unchanged.Until recently，most Yanomami still lived in isolated regions.Everything they needed came from the rain forest.They hunted，fished and farmed the land.Then a discovery brought the outside world to them.And along with it came deadly changes.
Gold was discovered in Yanomami in the 1970s.By 1987，around 80，000 miners had moved into the area.In a fight to take over the land，they killed some Yanomami.They also brought into new sicknesses，including the common cold and malaria(疟疾)．Today over 62 percent of Yanomami show signs of malaria.
Just as deadly were the results of mining，including polluted streams and cleared forests.Within just seven years their population fell by 20 percent.
Today governments and international organizations are looking for ways to protect the Yanomami.The Brazilian government has reserved a large area of land for the tribe.And in 1990，Brazil ordered all the miners out of Amazon region.Yet these things might not be enough.Gold is so valuable that miners keep going back and harming the Yanomami's way of life.

For as many as 8，000 years before European contact，the San Juan Islands were unhabited by the Northern Straits Salish people and other native people seasonally，preserving food in summer for winter spent elsewhere.All were drawn to the islands by the abundance of food and materials found here.
In the mid­1800s，a company came to the San Juan Islands following its numerous international trade routes.One employee，known as “Friday”，settled alone in the area of what is now the town of Friday Harbor.This caused many to refer to the place as “Friday's Harbor”．
By 1900，Friday Harbor had a population of only three or four hundred.Roads and telephone networks linked the town to the rest of the island.The community was growing and many public facilities (设施) had been added.What these buildings had in common was the simplicity of design.They were attractive and functional，but without complex decoration.Typically，both residential and commercial buildings were built with local wood.Money was not so plentiful that it could not be used for the unnecessary，and so most buildings were painted white，more for functional protection against rot，than for decoration.The town wore a poor look until the 1970s，when tourism，retirement，real estate (房地产)，construction，the arts and a variety of cottage industries began to take hold.Today，the town is busy and booming.
Though the traditional industries have all vanished，there are still many visible reminders of the pioneer era—100­year­old orchards (果园)，kitchen gardens，turn­of­the­century wooden buildings and companionable rooflines，and all local islanders and visitors alike with Friday Harbor's spirited early days.

12．How did the San Juan Islands help the ancients?
A．They provided them with a temporary shelter.
B．They functioned as tourist spots.
C．They protected them from colonial Europeans.
D．They played a role as an international trade centre.
A　[细节理解题。根据第一段中的“other native people seasonally，preserving food in summer for winter spent elsewhere”，尤其是其中的seasonally可知，古代当地人把圣胡安群岛当作季节性的避风港。]
13．Paragraph 3 mainly tells us the Friday Harbor's ．
A．future　　　　　　　 B．architect
C．population D．development
D　[主旨大意题。本题涉及了population，community，facilities，buildings等，最后两句又提到了1970s，Today等字样，故可推知第三段主要介绍了星期五港的发展。其他选项太过片面。]
14．How long did Friday Harbor take to really develop?
A．About 50 years. B．Over 100 years.
C．Over 300 years. D．About 8，000 years.
A　[数字计算题。根据第三段中的“The town wore a poor look until the 1970s，when tourism，retirement，real estate (房地产)，construction，the arts and a variety of cottage industries began to take hold”可知，星期五港真正的发展期是从二十世纪七十年代至今，大约是50年。]
15．What attracts visitors to the Friday Harbor?
A．The unique historic sites.
B．The busy but wealthy life.
C．The abundance of food.
D．The comfortable community.
A　[推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“many visible reminders of the pioneer era—100­year­old orchards (果园)，kitchen gardens，turn­of­the­century wooden buildings and companionable rooflines，and all local islanders and visitors alike with Friday Harbor's spirited early days”可知，历史遗迹吸引着游客。]
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
For nearly 50 years，Zhao Yuming has been absorbed in his own world of clay figurines(泥塑)．At age 62，Zhao is the only remaining clay sculpture master craftsman in Laoting County，Hebei Province.He has been officially recognised as a master of intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产)． 16 This is more of a responsibility and a source of pressure.
17 In ancient times，Laoting clay figurines were mainly children's toys made by countryside artists.After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949，there were several workshops in villages in Laoting County and the production reached a high level，but the prices were too low. 18 However，for a long period，many clay artists relied on making and selling clay figurines at those poor prices to make ends meet.
Nowadays，shopping malls are full of high­end toys，so the Laoting clay figurines have gradually fallen out of favor. 19 Zhao said that although his children have other jobs to feed their families，he still wants to pass on his skills to them and his grandchildren.“If we do not pass it on，we will do a disservice to our country.Passing on the skills，honoring ourselves and repaying the country is the best option.”
Facing a demand for economic development，many regions are increasingly attaching importance to the protection of valuable traditional cultural skills.People come to realise that developing our cultural relics promotes the development of local economies. 20
A．But for him，this is not only an honor.
B．Later，it became known as “literary clay figurines”．
C．Clay figurines were sold for just a few pennies each.
D．Laoting clay sculpture has a nearly 500­year history.
E．Laoting clay sculpture is an important part of Zhao's life.
F．However，some craftsmen have chosen to continue the tradition.
G．More importantly，it contributes to the goal of building “a beautiful China”．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。介绍了河北省乐亭县的非物质文化遗产泥塑及传承人赵玉明以及乐亭泥塑从古到今的发展历史。因为没有多少经济效益，如今泥塑面临着后继无人的困境，在经济发展迅速的今天，人们逐渐意识到保护和传承传统文化遗产的重要性。
16．A　[由此处语境以及空后句中的“a responsibility”，“a source of pressure”可知A项中的an honor与此呼应，其中的not only与空后句中的more of相对应，故选A项。]
17．D　[设空处在第二段段首，为该段的主题句，接下来都在介绍泥塑的发展历史，故选D项。]
18．C　[与设空处上文中的“the prices were too low”相对应的是C项“每个泥塑才卖几分钱”。故选C项。]
19．F　[设空处上一句提到“如今商场里充满了高档玩具，泥塑逐渐失宠”，下文提到“赵玉明说虽然孩子们都有自己养家糊口的工作，但是他仍然希望把这项技艺传给他们和孙辈们”，所以F项“然而，一些工匠选择继续延续这一传统”符合语境，故选F项。]
20．G　[设空处上文阐述发展文化遗产的意义，所以接下来继续说明其更重大的意义。G项“更重要的是，它有助于实现建设‘美丽中国’的目标”符合语境，故选G项。]

1．What is special about Summer Company?
A．It requires no training before employment.
B．It provides awards for running new businesses.
C．It allows one to work in the natural environment.
D．It offers more summer job opportunities.
B　[细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词Summer Company可直接定位到第二则暑期工作公告，而且浏览四则暑期工作公告可以发现，只有Summer Company的介绍里提到了awards(奖励)以及$ 3，000这样的字眼，由此可知Summer Company的特别之处在于B项“它为经营新业务提供奖励”。]
2．What is the age range required by Stewardship Youth Ranger Program?
A．15­18.　　　　　　 B．15­24.
C．15­29. D．16­17.
D　[细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词Stewardship Youth Ranger Program可直接定位到第三则暑期工作公告。根据本部分中的关键信息句“Students aged 16 or 17 at time of hire，but not turning 18 before December 31 this year.”可知，这个项目的年龄要求是16岁或17岁，且在今年12月31日前不能满18岁，故选D项“16至17岁”。]

B
Students should be able to show what they know.Many folks take this as a serf­evident truth.But I think it demands closer examination.
Possessing a skill or piece of knowledge is not the same thing as being able to show it.This is why many smart young people hate school.Understanding，figuring out，and getting a handle on a piece of knowledge is really exciting，but having to prove to somebody else that you understand is a big fat pain in the neck．
Finding proof of student learning is a huge part of the teacher's job，and whether it is done poorly or not makes all the difference in that teacher's effectiveness.There is a huge difference between “How do I figure out if this student understands” and “How do I make this student prove to me he gets it.” The first is a valuable approach；the second is the first step on the road toward wasting everybody's time.
And there's the problem.If we start with the assumption (假设) that a student who knows must be able to show his knowledge to our satisfaction，we will be traveling down the wrong road.The more we demand that students prove to us that they know the stuff，the more we will design artificial tasks that demand a set of skills and knowledge entirely different from the skills and knowledge we really want to measure.
As a classroom teacher，I have to remember that the burden is on me to find a way to see what my students know；the burden is not on them to put on whatever trained monkey show I design for my own ease and convenience.
It may not be the worst thing ever to say that students should be able to show what they know.But I think it's far more useful to say that teachers should be able to discover what students know.
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕着教师应该能够发现学生们知道的东西，而不是让学生证明他们知道的东西进行了阐述。
4．What does the underlined phrase in the second paragraph mean?
A．Very dangerous.　　　 B．Very annoying.
C．Very difficult. D．Very frequent.
B　[词义猜测题。根据but前的“Understanding，figuring out，and getting a handle on a piece of knowledge is really exciting”可知，掌控知识是让人兴奋的，but前后表示转折关系，此处表示“但是，必须向别人证明你理解(这些知识)则是非常痛苦的事情”。据此可推知，画线短语意为“极讨厌的”，故选B。]
5．According to the third paragraph，a teacher should have the ability to ．
A．discover whether his students know
B．avoid wasting the precious time in class

The United States Department of Agriculture has a program called Wildlife Services.Its job is to help protect agriculture and other resources from threats and damage by wildlife.Often that means helping farmers deal with unwelcome visitors．This organization has experts from different fields and it has set up thousands of inquiry agencies all over the country where farmers can explain their difficulty and get practical help.
One example from Wildlife Services of its work involved a farmer in Washington State，in the Pacific Northwest.Several years ago，thousands of Canada geese landed on his fields.The geese began to eat his carrot crop.Biologists from the program suggested that the farmer use noise­making devices and other measures to scare the large birds away.These efforts apparently succeeded，which made the farmer quite happy.
Wildlife Services also has a livestock(牲畜) protection program.The program just offers suggestions to keep those unwelcome visitors away instead of killing them.Experts suggest providing secure shelter for chickens，sheep and other animals that could be attacked.They also suggest using lights above places where animals are kept.And they advise people who see coyotes around their property to chase them away by shouting，making loud noises or throwing rocks.For home gardeners，a two­meter fence might help keep out deer.To keep out rabbits，a wire fence has to be only about a half­meter high.It should extend fifteen centimeters underground to keep rabbits from digging under it.If snakes are a problem，remove dead trees and cut high grass to destroy their hiding places.And to protect livestock，consider using guard animals such as dogs and donkeys，which are very effective.Due to its effective work，ever since the Wildlife Services was started，it has been well received by farmers all over the States and neighboring countries such as Canada and Mexico.

D．people who pollute the environment of the farms
C　[细节理解题。根据画线词的上一句“Its job is to help protect agriculture and other resources from threats and damage by wildlife.”可知，农作物等会被野生动物破坏，所以，“unwelcome visitors”是指那些破坏农作物或牲畜的野生动物。故选C。]

A．the farmer didn't have a gun to kill those Canada geese
B．Wildlife Services involves some biologists in its group
C．the carrot crop was eaten up by the Canada geese
D．the farmers like to eat Canada geese very much

Scientists first noticed something was up in a study that compared two similar groups：transit drivers，who sit most of the day，and conductors or guards，who don't.Though their diets and lifestyles were a lot alike，those that sat were about twice as likely to get heart disease as those that stood.
Sitting too much may increase the risk of dying prematurely.Even if you work out 7 hours a week—far more than the suggested 2～3 hours—you can't reverse(逆转) the effects of sitting 7 hours at a time.Don't throw away all that hard work at the gym by hitting the couch for the rest of the day.Keep moving!
The seated position puts huge stress on your body，including back muscles，neck，and spine.Look for an ergonomic chair－that means it'll be the right height and support your back in the proper spots.But remember：no matter how comfortable you get，your back still won't like a long sitting session.Get up and move around for a minute or two every half hour to keep your spine in line.
You may be more likely to get cancer.The more you sit，the higher the chances are.Older women have higher chances of getting breast cancer.That doesn't change if you're super­active.What matters is how much you sit.
Then，to be healthy，you need to know how to take a stand.Work more movement into your day.Stand up and stretch every half hour or so.Touch your toes.Take a stroll around the room.Stand at your desk for part of the day.Set your computer on top of a box.All these things can help stop the negative effects of uninterrupted sitting and keep you on the road to good health.
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。讲述了久坐不动的危害及应对措施。
12．Who may be the fittest person according to the text?
A．Mr. Green，who drives the city bus，works 8 hours a day.
B．Mr. Smith，who exercises 7 hours a week，sits 7 hours to work a day.
C．Ms. William，who sits comfortably in a chair，works long as a typist.
D．Mrs. Glenn，who is a receptionist，takes a walk in the park 2 hours a day.
D　[推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句可知，即使饮食和生活方式非常相似，坐着的人患心脏病的概率是站着的人的2倍。再根据第二段第二句可知，即使一周锻炼7小时也逆转不了一次性坐7个小时的影响。所以D项中提到的散步的人是最健康的。]
13．How many paragraphs are devoted to listing the possible damages?
A．3.　　　B．4.　　　C．5.　　　D．2.
B　[细节理解题。本文前四段中都介绍了久坐的危害，故选B。]
14．What's the author's suggestion for people to be fit?
A．Don't sit while you are working.
B．Look for an ergonomic chair to sit in.
C．Get up occasionally and move around.

C　[细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知答案为C。]
15．What is the best title for this article?
A．Sitting Too Much Really Kills
B．New Findings from Scientists
C．How to Take a Stand
D．Stand Up and Sit Down
A　[标题归纳题。本文讲述了久坐的危害，所以A项体现了文章的中心。]

What's next after the smartphone?
Humans can perform tricks today that magicians couldn't have imagined 50 years ago. Armed with only a tiny device today, our smartphones allow us to access a lifetime's worth of information, connect with anyone in real time even if they are miles away and perform complex tasks like drawing a floor plan within minutes. But the most astonishing part of this technological “magic” is the speed at which new opportunities and experiences are emerging.
From generation to generation, we have seen the inevitable connection between humans and technology as new technology is adopted to serve us and improve our quality of life. And the rate of technological progress is doubling every year.
Twenty years ago, who would have thought that we would be walking with robots and cyborgs？With the advancement of technology, we humans are accepting digital technology to improve and extend our senses and capabilities.
Take Moon Ribas and Neil Harbisson for example. They are the founders of the Cyborg Foundation, which aims to help humans become cyborgs, defend the rights of cyborgs and promote cyborgism as a social and artistic movement. Both Ribas and Harbisson are cyborgs, with Ribas having a seismic chip(地震芯片) put into her arm so she can feel earthquakes all around the world in real time and Harbisson, who is color­blind, has an antenna (天线) put into his head to allow him to be aware of visible and invisible colors via sound waves.
This is only the beginning of beginnings. As we continue to spend more time with machines, they will become more embedded in our lives. Technology already feels as if it had a mind of its own, and over the next two decades, this will become even more pronounced．
Machines will eventually become as intelligent as us, and，while today they may just live in our pockets, tomorrow they could be in our blood stream and our minds, linking us to the cloud.And as this gap separating humans and machines continues to close, we will reach a point where we become indistinguishable from one another. Technology and humanity will fuse (融合) together some day in the near future.
【语篇解读】　智能手机之后是什么？随着技术突飞猛进的发展，机器会变得和我们一样聪明，愈发地深入我们的生活，人与机器之间的鸿沟不断缩小，终有一天技术将与人融为一体。
4．The first paragraph of the passage is intended to tell readers ．
A．the smartphone brings us much convenience
B．the magical and powerful functions of the smartphone
C．the most astonishing technological magic of the smartphone
D．new opportunities and experiences are emerging at a high speed
D　[写作意图题。本段开头描述了智能手机的功能，但接着用一个转折句来说明技术的“魔法”最惊人的地方在于新机遇、新体验的涌现速度，明确了本段的写作意图、引入了文章的主题，所以选D。]
5．What does the underlined word“pronounced” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Spoken.　　　　　 B．Declared.
C．Evident. D．Lively.
C　[词义猜测题。动词pronounce的意思是“发音；正式宣布”，由上文中所提到的“This is only the beginning of beginnings.As we continue to spend more time with machines，they will become more embedded in our lives.Technology already feels as if it had a mind of its own, and over the next two decades, this will become even more pronounced.”可以推断出形容词pronounced一词是“明显的”的意思，所以选C。]
6．Neil Harbisson is a cyborg that can ．
A．help humans to create other cyborgs
B．sense colors by using sound waves
C．see both visible and invisible colors
D．feel earthquakes all around the world
B　[细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句中的“to allow him to be aware of visible and invisible colors via sound waves”可知Neil Harbisson能够用声波感受色彩，所以选B。]

A．The new technology will be related to the smartphone in the near future.
B．Machines will eventually become as intelligent as human beings.
C．The future tendency is that technology and humanity will fuse together.
D．We are reaching a point where we can't tell humans and machines apart.

A supermarket checkout operator was praised for striking a blow for modern manners and a return to the age of politeness after refusing to serve a shopper who was talking on her mobile phone.
The supermarket manager was forced to apologize to the customer who complained she was told her goods would not be scanned unless she hung up her phone.Jo Clark，46，said，“I don't know what she was playing at.I couldn't believe how rude she was.When did she have the right to give me a lecture on checkout manners？I won't be shopping there again！”
But users of social media sites and Internet forums(论坛) were very angry that store gave in and the public appeared to be supporting the angry checkout worker.“Perhaps this is a turning point for mobile phone users everywhere.When chatting，keep your eyes on people around you.That includes people trying to serve you，other road users and especially people behind you on the stairs，” said a typical post.
“It's time checkout staff fought back against these people constantly chatting on their phones.They can drive anyone crazy.It's rude and annoying.I often want to grab someone's phone and throw it as far as I can，even though I am not a checkout girl，just a passer­by，” said another.
Siobhan Freegard，founder of parenting site www.Netmums.com said，“While this checkout operator doesn't have the authority to order customers to switch off their phones，you can see clearly how frustrated and angry she felt.No matter how busy you are，life is nicer when you and those around you have good manners.”
【语篇解读】　本文主要讲了消费者与收银员之间冲突的事例。收银员拒绝为结账时打电话的顾客服务，并且要求顾客挂掉电话，否则不予扫描商品，最后超市经理被迫向该顾客道歉。这件事引起了公众的广泛关注。不同的人对此有不同的看法。
8．According to Jo Clark，the checkout operator ．
A．lacked the knowledge of checkout manners
B．played with a mobile phone while at work
C．had no right to forbid her from using her mobile phone
D．deserved praise for her modern manners

9．The third and fourth paragraphs imply that the public ．
A．are used to chatting on their mobile phones
B．are driven crazy by constant mobile calls
C．ignore the existence of mobile phone users
D．seem to support the checkout operator
D　[细节理解题。根据“But users of social media sites and Internet forums(论坛) were very angry that store gave in and the public appeared to be supporting the angry checkout worker.”(社交网站和网络论坛的用户对于那家超市作了让步一事感到愤怒，并且公众似乎支持愤怒的收银员)及第四段内容可知选D。]
10．The attitude of Siobhan Freegard towards the checkout operator was ．
A．disapproving B．supportive
C．neutral(中立的) D．indifferent
B　[推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Siobhan Freegard认为，尽管收银员没有权利要求顾客挂掉电话，但是我们可以感知她很生气、沮丧。无论生活多么忙碌，当你和周围的人举止合乎礼仪时，生活会更好。因此可以推断，他是支持收银员的。]
11．The passage is mainly about ．
A．whether we should talk on our phones while being served
B．why we can talk on mobile phones while shopping
C．what good manners checkout operators should have
D．how we can develop good manners for mobile phone users
A　[主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文讲的是顾客在结账时只顾打电话，而没有注意到收银员的感受。所以文章旨在引导我们思考：在接受别人的服务时是否应该打电话。故选A。]

Traffic Light Reading is one of students' favorites！And it's so simple.Here's what to do：Take three pens in different colors，most suitably red，orange and green.But it's not too important as long as teachers and students are both clear on the color code they're going to use.
Students read a text，not worrying too much about how much they understand.Teachers can ask them to reread when students are paying attention to vocabulary.Start by underlining the words that they understand completely (including names，numbers，etc.) in green.
Then students reread the text and underline the words that look familiar—they maybe know them but aren't too sure about them.You guessed it：in orange.
Finally，students read the text a third time underlining the words they clearly don't understand in red.Sometimes，teachers might want to set students a limit for how many red words they underline，telling them only to underline the words that they believe are seriously blocking their understanding of the text as a whole.Generally，however，students are pleasantly surprised by how few words are red and how many are green.Seeing their ability laid out in a visual way really helps to increase confidence.
Once the whole text is underlined，teachers can give students a limit of 5，10 or 15 words，depending on the length of the text，and tell them they're only allowed to look these words up in a dictionary.This helps them to recognize words that are actually getting in the way of their understanding of the text and words that they don't know but actually don't impact their whole understanding of the text.
This is a useful activity that can be done with a printed text，in a Google Doc，on RealtimeBoard，or set as a homework task for some independent study.
【语篇解读】　文章介绍了交通指示灯式阅读法在教学中的应用，这种方法旨在培养学生的学习能力。

Things to Know When You Write an E­mail Message

Be polite and friendly.
Start your message with a greeting.If you are writing to a friend，you can begin with Hi，Sandra.If you are writing to your teacher，begin your message with Dear Mr Atonso. 17 Many people just type their names.Others say Bye，Cheers，or use abbreviations(缩写) like BFN (bye for now)．
Look good.
When someone receives an e­mail message from you，they might not know anything about you.They will judge you from your e­mail message，so make yourself look good. 18 Sometimes sentences seem clear when you write them，but don't make sense when you read them back.
19
If you start to use your e­mail several times a week，your message box will soon fill with mail.After a few weeks，you can have a list of 60 or 70 messages! It is easy to delete(删除) the messages you don't want anymore.If your messages are important，you can save them in folders(文件夹)． 20 It only takes a few minutes to learn.
A．Organize your e­mail.
B．It's cheaper than a phone call.
C．The e­mail must be addressed correctly.

A city without cars would be very strange，right？But Venice is such a city.
Venice is in the northeast of Italy.It wasn't built on land，like Beijing or Shanghai，but on more than 110 islands.Seawater is everywhere around the city.
Even so，travel isn't difficult.The waterways have always been the best way to get around.There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go.People in Venice move from place to place by boat.
Water makes the city special，but it is also a big problem.Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences.One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge，and there's nothing special.But when they come back to the bridge an hour later，it's underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.
Once，people used too much underground water.This made the city get lower little by little.Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters.Another problem is the rising seawater.The temperature has risen over the years.This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean melt.Every year，high water hits the city in autumn and winter.When a lot of water comes，more than half of the city is underwater.
Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.The Italian government has asked some of Italy's biggest companies to build the MOST project，which was planned to be built under the seawater to stop the rising water.Anyway，this project is helping solve the problem.

British scientists，exploring a beach on the country's east coast，discovered what they believed were the oldest human footprints outside of Africa.They were estimated to be close to one million years old and were believed to be the oldest evidence of humans in northern Europe.
Footprints of a group of ancient humans were discovered on a beach in Norfolk，in eastern Britain.They may be about 500，000 years older than the earliest footprints previously found in the country.The 3D images and a model of one of the imprints(印记) were unveiled(透露) at a news conference at the British Museum，in London.
The museum's archaeologist Nick M Ashton described the moment when he realised the footprints were left by prehistoric men.“It was only when the overhead views were emailed to me back in my office that I immediately looked at it and opened up the file and I thought，‘This is absolutely amazing.’ You know，there was no doubt that they really were human footprints，” he said.
Nick said the new discovery would alter the understanding of early human history in Europe.A researcher of Liverpool John Moores University Isabelle de Groote analysed the prints.“The spread of the footprint size gave us an indication that there were children，a number of children and probably some adults there with at least one，probably one male，” she said.
It is not known how the early humans survived in the cold environment of ancient northern Europe.Scientists said a million years ago，Britain was joined to continental Europe and they believed that the individuals who left the footprints were related to Homosapiens' ancestors called the Pioneer Man，known to have inhabited in a warmer climate.

A．prove B．explain
C．change D．develop
C　[词义猜测题。根据该词所在的语境可知，这次在英国东海岸发现的脚印将会改变人们对欧洲早期人类历史的认知，故可推测alter意为“改变”。故选C项。]
14．Who left the footprints on the beach according to researcher Isabelle?
A．A group of children.

C．A group of men.
D．Children and adults.

Regardless of the weather or the distance，Paul Wilson will make sure low­income students in his neighbourhood arrive at their college classes on time.
A retired engineer，76­year­old Wilson has been 21 free rides to college students for the past eight years.Since he first started 22 his car to the young people，Wilson has 23 an astonishing 64，000 miles，and has had countless pleasant and often humorous 24 with the students he transports to and from school.The students who he's 25 have gone on to become physicians，teachers and engineers，but what they've also got out of their time in school is finding a role model and a friend in Wilson.Some students 26 call him “Grandpa”．
Tina Stern 27 rides from Wilson for all her four years in college，and the trips meant much more to her than just free 28 ．“It's not just a ride；you're not just sitting there in 29 silence or with your headphones on，” Stern said.“He asks you questions and actually 30 the answers，so the next time you ride with him，he'll 31 those things.”
Wilson first worked as a driver through a student­support programme of the non­profit organisation，On Point for College.Although the 32 asks the members only to drive students to and from their classes，Wilson often goes 33 to ensure the welfare and safety of the students.If they have problems with registration，Wilson is there to 34 them.If they run out of certain daily necessities，Wilson will drive to the nearest store and purchase what's needed.If a student gets hungry on the long drives to and from school，Wilson never 35 to buy them a meal.
For many students，Wilson's help is not only appreciated，it's also entirely 36 for them to be able to complete their college education.Some students don't have a reliable car，while others have to 37 vehicles with parents who work six days a week.For them，riding with Wilson has 38 them to complete their education—but according to Wilson，he benefits just as much from the 39 ．“I just love driving，and I love these kids，” Wilson said.“It's such a(n) 40 to be a part of these kids' lives，even just for a few hours，getting to know them and hearing their stories.”

Reggie was a normal boy，but he had been born deaf.He was well known to everyone in town，and they were all very fond of him.Unfortunately，he always seemed to be treated 41. (different) from everyone else.
Reggie didn't like this very much.But the person 42. disliked this most was his friend Michael.Michael decided that things had to change.So he managed to persuade other people in town 43. (choose) one day of the festival for deaf people this year.During that whole day everyone in town would have to wear earplugs(耳塞)．The day 44. (call) The Day of Silence，and when it arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears.As the hours passed，people began to realize 45. difficult life was for the deaf.Soon no one was thinking of Reggie as 46. deaf person.47. (use) his usual gestures，Reggie was the one who could communicate best with everyone.They were surprised at his ability to find solutions 48. almost any problems.They realized all Reggie needed was 49. (much) time than others to communicate.That was the only difference.
It was on this day 50. everyone realized they have to give people a chance to show how useful they are.
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了Reggie天生失聪，别人对待他的方式与其他人有所不同。他的朋友设法说服镇上的其他人选择今年的一天为今年的聋人节。随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。
41．differently　[考查词性转换。该空修饰动词treated，用副词，所以填differently。]
42．who/that　[考查定语从句。“ disliked this most”是一个定语从句，the person是先行词，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，所以填who/that。]
43．to choose　[考查非谓语动词。persuade sb.to do sth.说服某人做某事，是固定用法，所以填to choose。]
44．was called　[考查时态和语态。整篇文章都用的是一般过去时，所以这里也用一般过去时，The day与 call之间是被动关系，用被动语态，所以填was called。]
45．how　[考查宾语从句。句意：随着时间的流逝，人们开始意识到耳聋者的生活是多么的艰难。“ difficult life was for the deaf.”是一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作状语表示“多么”，所以填how。]
46．a　[考查冠词。句意：很快，就没有人把Reggie当成一个耳聋者来看待了。此处为泛指一个耳聋者，deaf的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。]
47．Using　[考查非谓语动词。use的逻辑主语是Reggie，它们之间是主动关系，用现在分词作状语，所以填Using。]
48．to　[考查介词。句意：他们对他几乎能解决所有问题的能力感到惊讶。find solutions to...找到……的解决方案，为固定用法，所以填to。]
49．more　[考查比较级。根据“than others to communicate”可判断出这里在进行比较，用比较级，所以填more。]
50．that　[考查强调句。把It was和该空去掉，这个句子结构完整，语义清晰，所以这是一个强调句。强调句的基本结构是：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that＋句子的其他成分，所以填that。]
Ⅴ.应用文写作

41．is used　[Red与use之间为逻辑上的被动关系，再结合全文的时态可知，答案为is used。]
42．happiness　[本空用作show的宾语，所以用名词happiness。]
43．based　[be based on以……为基础。]
44．in　[be marked in用(某种颜色)做标记，是固定搭配。]
45．when　[when引导定语从句，修饰先行词day，并在从句中作状语。]
